Have to think this is sayonara to The Office too and they're just blowing up Thursday entirely, right?

Agree on 30 Rock. Some tremendously memorable lines -- my favorite was the extra-strength keep-you-awake pill that was being "jointly developed by the Army and the WNBA" -- but I can't really think of a single episode that held my attention as a story.

If "Community" returns, it could be lacking Chevy Chase, a prominent member of the ensemble cast. Chase has been quoted lately as calling the show "a mediocre sitcom" and saying he can't wait to be rid of it.

Chevy Chase talking about "mediocre comedy" in and of itself is one of the funniest things he has done in decades.

I've been watching the first season on Comedy Central. Holy shit are those better than the current season.

It's probably about time for "30 Rock," though I think it has been tremendous. Time for Baldwin to do movies while he's still relatively young. I'm sure Fey and Morgan have those ambitions, as well.

I'd love for a cable network or someone to pick up "Parks & Recreation," though I'm assuming its stars have higher ambitions as well.

I'd love to see the episode count on Community and Parks and Rec. NBC is crazy to get rid of shows that are so close to having 100 episodes which means they can cash in with syndication. ABC and CBS seem to understand this better than the Peacock does.

NBC understands nothing, which is why it is where it is. They'll probably use the block of time on Thursdays to expand "The Biggest Loser" to 10 hours a week.
I could see Comedy Central picking up Parks & Rec. Word was that Fey was ready to have 30 Rock go. I will say the "live" episode with Paul McCartney a couple weeks ago was pretty funny.
